Toyotamahime Shrine, dedicated to the memorable goddess of beautiful skin in 2023

Toyotamahime Shrine is famous as the goddess of beautiful skin and is located in Ureshino Onsen, one of Japan's three major hot springs for beautiful skin. There is also a catfish that is said to be Toyotamahime's messenger. It is said that the shrine has been bustling with people praying for the recovery of skin diseases (white catfish) since ancient times. The water for the chozuya is made of hot spring water from Ureshino Onsen, and it was a welcome befitting the goddess of beautiful skin. It is a recommended beauty spot for sightseeing in Ureshino Onsen.
